What is a mental trick you use personally to snap out of a bad mood or negative thought pattern?

Depends on the scenario 

“What might I learn, or how might I grow from this experience? It’s difficult now but I’ll be a better person for getting through it” is my go to

If it’s just a bad mood, I often allow myself to be there. It’s often faster to let negative emotions pass thru than to block them.

I like that question: what might I learn, it flips the situation into a (sort of) positive experience
